First of all, I do not own this image and therefore am giving credit whereupon credit is due. Secondly, I know that I should be boycotting Facebook, because of how they have treaded upon me, but I realize that these Christmas in July images are indeed enjoyable by at least a few of my Facebook [and Instagram] friends. Finally, some time late last week my writer’s block has left me and I am in the mood to be creative once again. So, submitted for your approval, is the words I believe this picture is worth to me: Here I picture a twenty-six year old man who is a fugitive from the law but not justice. His crime? Many find his writings to be highly seditious and subversive. Many more though are tremendously encouraged and inspired by his work. Accompanied by him is his twenty year old lover turned wife, though they were quietly wed in an unregistered ceremony. They are so much in love and full of affection towards each other but trying their best to hide from the oppressive authorities. They walk through a rural area, thinking they won’t be found. Subsequently, they come upon and old barn and hide there for the night. In the morning, the owner sees their footprints in the snow and retrieves his sawed of shotgun to confront whomever is in his barn. They are snuggling together and just barely waking up in each other’s arms when the door is flung open and he catches them. Immediately he recognizes the young man as the wanted fugitive, pumps his shotgun and orders both of them to lie face down. Subsequently they are bound by rope and the local sheriff’s department is called. While waiting for the cops to arrive, he angrily lectures them, first to the young man on how he should have worked a real job, kept his head low and been a contributing member of society instead of an insurrectionist. He then tells the young lady that she is just as evil as her lover for providing love and comfort to him. They are taken into custody. The young man is flogged to death without due process. The young lady is thrown into a women’s prison where she is murdered by fellow inmates due to their raging jealousy of her innocence and beauty.

I do not own this image and I, therefore, give all credit whereupon credit is due. I wish I could post more Christmas in July pictures, but I am going through a terrible writer’s block, but trying to press through and fight it tooth and nail. When I look at this image, I am reminded of a story that has been on my mind for some time now. I picture a young man taking his girlfriend to meet his family for the first time at a Christmas shindig they are throwing. Though they’ve only been together a few months, their bond has become immensely strong. At first his family members are commenting that they moved way too fast. But then the caterers arrive and some of them are tied with the family from the young man’s marital past. As he and his girlfriend are outside exchanging affections, two of the caterers begin to make all kinds of rude comments about them. His girlfriend gets angry, tells them off and puts them in their place. Her words strike their conscience and ego with the accuracy of a .38 Special. She then grabs the young man and pelts his face with kisses while fondling his backside as she says how that should give them plenty more to talk about. She goes on to say how she too was once married to a family like that and knows exactly how they operate and now she has someone good who loves her for her and indeed cherishes her, while they are downright miserable. The young man is speechless but highly validated as he begins to lovingly caress her face as he kisses her and rubs his nose against hers. They exchange those three little words as they had many times before but this time with even more intensity! The young man’s sister and her husband witness the whole situation and soon have the rest of the family convinced that they are a perfect match and fit perfectly. The caterers are then fired and the young man and his girlfriend get in her van, go to a local market to make groceries and together prepare a delicious Christmas meal for the family, thereby winning her over to his family!

Here’s my first Christmas in July picture for July of 2021. Just for the record, I do not own this image and give credit to whomever credit is due. I picture a young man getting off of work early on Christmas Eve. He then walks to his girlfriend’s house and they subsequently go for a walk, cherishing their time together. They are so much in love and likewise show their affections in front of everyone. One older woman, let’s call her Karen, threatens to call the police on them for what she deems as lewd conduct. So they walk away from her but she follows them. Karen follows them into a coffee shop and continues heckling them until the workers kick her out. The young man then thanks the workers and buys himself and his girlfriend some spice cookies and hot chocolate. They eat and drink happily. The establishment is frequented by many writers all of whom are inspired by what they saw. Many ideas are exchanged and this goes on until closing time. They then head back to her house and exchange many kisses beneath the glow of the street lamp. The young lady then tells her boyfriend to come back bright and early tomorrow morning. They exchange several more kisses and then those three little words. Afterwards, she goes inside and he walks home…

NOTE: I do not own this image and I must needs give all credit to whomever credit is due. For today’s Christmas in July, I picture a young man and a slightly younger lady at a New Years Eve party they were both invited to. They do indeed like each other but 2020 had been so terrible to them and there were many stalled moments and other hangups in the relationship. There was also much ill treatment from others in their lives. But those negative aspects made them realize, now that they should be a couple, because they could make each other happy and they equally realize that they should be sweet to each other from now on. Mutually they ask each other out, just as midnight strikes. They agree and the excitement all around them is very minute compared to how they are affectionately tugging on each other’ hearts and clothing as they move in for that first kiss and not only that, the fireworks going off everywhere are pale in comparison to the sparks they feel and taste on each others’ tongues. After many passionate kisses afterward, they drink each other’s champagne and make a promise that this new year will be much better for them!…July is dwindling down, so this will be one of my last, maybe even my last Christmas in July posts. If it is indeed my last, I hope all of you appreciate them. I sure enjoy posting them and I wish I could have done more…

I do not own this image and I give credit to whomever credit is due! I sincerely apologise for not posting as many Christmas in July pictures with stories as I ought to. This is more of a winter in summer than a Christmas in July picture, but none the less, I would imagine the world is in total chaos because it is trying to establish a globally oppressive government and was met with resistance. Major conflict ensued, with the oppressors ultimately taking control. I picture a young couple in love looking for a place to hide and consummate their love. New laws are in effect worldwide that any couple that wants to be intimate and live together must be married and in order to be married both parties most prove their conformity and loyalty to this worldwide government. This couple refuses to do so. So they are constantly on the run, hiding in diverse subterranean places. They are cold and tired but their love for each other compels them to press on. At last, they are safe and become known to each other. But then they are caught and found without proof of conformity and then are executed on the spot, bleeding out and dying in each other’s arms…

For CYB purposes, I do not own this image and I give all credit to whomever credit is due…So, I picture a young couple so much in love, but absolutely forbidden from seeing each other, so they run away together on Christmas Eve. They make it to a large city, having eluded their families and law enforcement across multiple state lines. Both of their bodies are pumping with all kinds of hormones from the rush that is derived from trying not to get caught. The passion is building inside of them and while they have nothing material to give each other for Christmas, so they consummate their love as soon as they can find a place that is private, warm and free. At long last, they find such a place, just at the stroke of midnight. Boldly and passionately, they profess their love and commitment to each other then become known to each other! In the morning they wake in a sea of Tarpaulin, realizing they must needs be on the move yet again…

Look, just to be clear, I am not the owner of this image. However, it does provoke a considerable deal of emotion and inspiration from my heart! I promise you this Christmas in July piece will be more pleasant than the previous. All in all, I would imagine a young couple on Christmas Eve spending the entire night cuddling in that window seat. The young lady is cradling the young gentleman in her lap and he is looking up at her with powerful admiration. As they are holding each other and looking at the night sky, they are reading the love stories from the personal blog of yours, truly, to each other. Each story they read causes them to exchange more caresses and kisses. Finally, they fall asleep in each other’s arms under the tranquil ambiance of moonlight and stars. They wake the next day, still holding on then eventually prepare to meet each others’ families and exchange gifts with them…As I conclude this edition of Christmas in July, I realize Christmas is exactly five months away and despite 2020 being a tremendously rotten year on every level, I hope and pray there will be at least some joy during this upcoming Christmas, especially since last Christmas was so awful for me…On a slightly related note, I always wanted a window seat growing up but never had one. Some day, I might write a blog piece about that.

Just for the record, I do not own this image and I give all credit to whomever credit is due…When I see this, I imagine a wedding taking place, either just a few days before Christmas or on New Years Eve. The bride and groom are so much in love, but the groom has somewhat of a past. At first, the bride’s family was quite leery of him, but they ultimately accepted him when they witnessed how much he truly loves her and how he is willing to help them any and all ways that he is able. Everyone is smiling on them. Now they are exchanging rings and vows, then share a passionate kiss in front of friends, family, neighbors and loved ones. The Pastor pronounces them husband and wife and everyone goes celebrate! After the celebration a private plane is waiting to take them to an exquisite honeymoon vacation in Switzerland!

Just for the record, I am not the owner of this image. However, I imagine a couple on Christmas vacation hiking in the mountains. After they reach a considerable height, they look down at the village below, both noticing the glowing windows. The young lady comments how beautiful the view is. The young man then replies how it is no where near as beautiful as her, nothing or no one is! She then passionately embraces him and begins to plant several kisses on his face. They then both fall into the snow giggling, where they hold each other for just a few moments, then decide to head back down because it’s getting dark. Both are carrying flashlights, which light the way as they walk back to the village…

I am not the owner of this image, just for the record. However, I find it very inspiring. I picture a young couple around Christmas time. It’s a 17 year old boy and a 13 year old girl from families at odds with each other. He is very destitute but she is very well to do. However, their love for each other is unequivocally strong. He spent the day walking across town in below freezing weather, just to see her for a few minutes. They meet beneath the street lamp and exchange multiple kisses. He then embraces her and she buries her face in his chest. After holding her, he presents her a beautiful watch and says how he synchronized it with the church clock. She looks at the time on the face of that watch and realizes her parents will be home soon. Sweetly, they share several more kisses and one last embrace follow by a mutual, “I love you.” Then bid each other farewell. The boy then walks home and the girl watches longingly from the bay window until he is out of her sight…That’s my Christmas in July for this evening.
